If you're in Australia, here's some (hopefully) good news: I'm now coming to Brisbane! Thanks to Virginia @movementvitality for hosting me, March 13-15. #yogateacher #yogatour #internationalyoga #permissiontoplay #yogaaustralia #downunderyoga

Adding a little twist to these banded side bends incorporates more planes of movement. When you come upright to twist, make sure you are still resisting the band—and unlike most things, work *against* the band to feel its feedback. #yogawithresistancebands #perrmissiontoplay

Whoever said yoga isn't FUN hasn't tried singing along to their parighasanas...If you can sing in the pose you can breathe in the pose! #permissiontoplay #internationalyoga #travelingyogi #yogaisfun #sidebend #singalong #movesmarter #practiceplay

That forearm holds us up in a vashistasana variation, which evolves into a dynamic back bend. Make the movement as big as possible WITHOUT losing control. #permissiontoplay #internationalyoga #travelingyogi #shouldermobility #shoulderstrength #movesmarter

Real friends don't let you win. Loved playing with my friends in Pietrasanta, who challenge me with their open hearts, strong bodies, and effervescent smiles. #permissiontoplay #internationalyoga #travelingyogi

Now the work changes when we start a crab-crawl with contralateral contraction. Remember to press into the tips of your fingers and use the muscles of your forearms (and more!) to control how you are loading your wrists. #permissiontoplay #internationalyoga #travelingyogi

This progression is one of many fun and fluid ways to explore seamless transitioning for supine to sitting to standing and beyond! #travelingyogi #yogatour #permissiontoplay #hipflow #hipopener

Yoga means union, as many of us know. I'm so proud that many of my colleagues and friends in NYC are taking a stand to unionize yoga teachers. If you're a teacher or a student, please support the effort--and the…

This is another parighasana flow that grows our spirals into spinal extension, and all the way around (through bridge pose) to the other side. #permissiontoplay #practiceplay #spirals #travelingyogi #stabilitymobility #spinalextension #movesmarter #fullROM #movementscales

This side-bending, swinging spiral is a beautiful accessible movement for pretty much everyone. #permissiontoplay #practiceplay #spirals #travelingyogi #stabilitymobility #spinalextension #movesmarter #fullROM #movementscales

To transition between sides of this sequence, do the flip I posted yesterday—your shoulders will already be warmed enough to turn you over and around, as will your gaze! Don't forget to have FUN! #balance #permissiontoplay #backbends #vision #perception #neurobiology

Here we combine range in the shoulders and spine with balance in a circular multi-planar parighasana-ustrasana hybrid. #balance #permissiontoplay #backbends #vision #perception #neurobiology

When we come out, we don't lose that upper back (or whole-body!!!) engagement. Alternate strength and flow with an X fly on the belly, then some shoulder rolls and cobras. #permissiontoplay #travelingyogi #sideplank #stabilitymobility #uncoupledmovements #lookmanohands

The opposite hand-to-knee touch will really challenge your stability—but stability does not mean no movement! A strong body responds to changes in balance with resilience, like a building designed to withstand earthquakes by bending slightly. #psoas #corecontrol #permissiontoplay

To round out the reflexive core work, try to press opposite hand to leg and find a contralateral action in the core for your obliques (and brain!). Then enjoy some relaxed and easy mobilization of your lower extremities. #psoas #corecontrol #permissiontoplay #travelingyogi
